Ramboard or other breathable flooring protection products are the most suitable for polished concrete surfaces. Using products that don't allow the concrete to breathe such as mdf, coreflute or plastic will result in discolouration of the slab surface. This can sometimes be ground out but not if the required exposure level is minimal.

The 3 biggest factors that contribute to the cost of a job in order of importance are…. finish, job size and then job complexity. After that location is the next factor we will take into consideration as well as what time of year your works will take part.

Careful planning around when to pour, method of placement and concrete mix type are all important factors when aiming for a desired exposure level. Full exposure finishes are more forgiving on the outcome of the slab pour than nil and minimal exposure finishes

Well, you essentially have to nail the slab pour. The best of the best concreter's won't nail this finish every time as there are a number of factors outside of their control. Using the best methods, tooling and practices will more often than not get the right result.

Any neutral PH cleaner will work fine on a polished concrete floor. If the floor is done correctly, the surface should not collect a lot of dirt and most of our customers find a vac and mop more than enough to keep their floor clean.
